Re: 49' Patina bagged in PA
3-8-14 Today was beat, but tomorrow I might be able to get four hours in, today was a couple at best. Spent a little time centering up the engine and getting it somewhat situated, still need to make the plates that will be under the motor mounts and weld to the crossmember. I need to jack the trans up a nuthair to get then degreed in. I measured off my 51' to double check dist clearance which is very healthy, and also trans clearance. All is good. I need a driveshaft for moch up to see if I need to notch out any more of the cab in the back, I'm hoping to knock that out soon to finish up the floor.
Jumped back up on the driverside cowl area. Made this patch piece for the door hinge as the top part of it was gone, so I just welded up some nuts on the back of this piece and will weld this piece into the existing one, probably should have just made one whole piece instead of this patch.
Lastly, after being all jacked about two of my seats not fitting last weekend, I hoped on old faithful CL and boom, found an 89' bench for dirt cheap. Glad I did cause its in perfect shape as opposed to my others which would have needed padding. All I gotta do is get the pleated seat cover made and I can't decide to go black and white or maybe match up some of the copper theme I'll have.
